1. Batman Begins Batman. Complete, practical, beast like but beautifully streamlined, a pure movie/update/cinematic adaptation of a costume.
2. Kyle Rayner - New Ion. - The shot of Kyle when he first appears in Sinestro Corps War Special is amazing, the blackness, the star pattern, the light from the chest eminating. brilliant. YOU CANNOT ARGUE WITH THIS!
3. Jim Lee's Superman. Manages to make it look royal and regal rather than cheesy and ridiculous. There is this prescence about his superman where you forget he has underwear on the outside and just see a God.
4. Evil Black Adam Mary Marvel - I want my woman to dress like this.
5. Superboy Prime - Armored like on the cover of Infinite Crisis #6. That is one badass look.
.......I seriosuly cannot think of anyone else. They all look pretty ridiculous, unlike alot of Marvel's characters. Maybe Hal's new costume.

The former Captain Marvel, now just "Marvel", The white costume just says "now i'm even more of a badass".
The same goes for Superboy/man-Prime and the black suit.
As for classics, gotta be Superman, E-1 and E-2.

Wonder Woman of course! I love how the Dodsons is working her outfit. They keep the top high enough so she is more then just chest and you can actually believe that she could actually get her Iconic outfit on and off. They give her outfit the image of strength and power. My only flaw is the belt, i sometimes think that she might impale her stomach with the point of the W!

My tops for awesome costumes?
I REALLY dig Batwoman's new black and red look.
http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/52/Batwoman/batwoman2a.jpg
Also a big fan of Renee's look as the Question.
http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/Crime-bible-2.jpg
Mind you I chose this picture for a reason. I like this more than the blue Trenchcoat. To me the Trenchcoat looked great on Vic Sage, but Montoya seems to pull off the look better without it.. She looks normal, then you realize she doesn't have a ****in' face and it turns freaky as all get out.
Neal Adam's take on Batman's costume has an likely always will be my favorite, I like the blue and grey and the long ears.
Catwoman, in the classic purple with black long boots and gloves.
http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff213/XxChiropteraxX/Catwoman.jpg
And finally, my all time favorite costume goes to the Dodson's and their minor alterations to Wonder Woman. No more huge girdle belt, and I like the new W one. No the fact that it might jab into her doesn't bother me. It's a comic book. We've got people flying through the Frikkin SUN, I'm not gonna let something as trivial as a fashion problem like that bother me.

Marvel / Balck Adam Uniform,
Wonder Woman Armor,
Batman gray and Black,
Hal Parallax and his original uniform in Reis' art,
I've liked Kandor Superman... Sorry.
Marshall Rogers' Deadshot costume was so cool, it made the character. I think it is one of the best costumes period.
I also always thought the 80s version of Vigilante also had a cool costume.

Wally as Kid Flash is hands-down the best sidekick outfit for originality while maintaining integrity with the mentor's costume. He and Donna as Wonder Girl always look best when George Perez draws them.
I love love *love* Shayera/Hawkwoman and always have. One of the big reasons why I'm not nearly as fond of Kendra/Hawkgirl as I could be is because the costume looks so much better with flowing red hair.
